New Wheels!! Alcoas w/ wrangler territories

Finally got some tires for the Alcoa's i picked up last week and just finished putting them on! I think they make the truck look 100% better! They are 31x10.5x15 Goodyear Wrangler Territories.I had the weights moved to the inside lips and need to clean the lips up and retouch the clearcoat at work tomorrow, I will wash the truck as well and get some better pictures.

I know, I ordered one through some guy who was supposed to get it for really cheap because he wants our shops business and said it would be 2 weeks but its been like 3 months! I was actually talking to him the other day and he said it got backordered but they never let him knew and just found out, if he does not produce in a week or two I am going to get one somewhere else, i would have rather paid full price for it than wait so long for it.

The other side of the wire is white outlined letters. As far as i know only Canadian Tire stores sell these tho.

And i was going to go 32's if i went to another tire but these jump from 31 to 33 in a 15"wheel size, and i figured 33's would be pushing it with no lift and i dont like them to look too crammed.

I think you need a wider rim. Those tires are really tucked in there. An 8 in rim would look so much better.

Sick tires. They look great.

i know, I'm thinking about getting some wheel spacers. 1" or something, will these put much more stress on my hubs, steering components etc?
